Default Looking for a ESP

Looking to see if anyone has a hookup on deals on esp w/tire and wheel or just tire and wheel
I heard of discount esp (if you have used them please post experience) but I prefer to have a HD one and not a 3rd party warranty thank you

I have the discount ESP, no problems and it is way cheaper than Harley. Best thing is, I can take the bike to any repair shop I don't have to use a Harley Dealer

Talk to your dealer. I hear pricing can be negotiated.

I'm not longer with Discount ESP or the dealership(s) affiliated with this company--which are currently closed. My role was the sales aspect of Discount ESP and not claims; however, I can understand frustrations of riders, when they have to wait for the selling dealership to authorize most claims. I regret not leaving the dealership earlier; however, as employees we were not involved management decision.

We left Discount ESP and can now offer extended service plans without a connection to a dealership (Boardtracker H-D or IronTown H-D). The (2) companies we've partnered with have (3) plans for new bikes to provide options for riders:
  1. Compass Platinum: Up to 6-Additional Years of Coverage after the Factory Warranty Expires. $0 Deductible and coverage for virtually every breakdown at any H-D dealership or Independent Repair Facility. Components Wear & Tear Coverage is included.
  2. Eagle Guardian: Up to 5-Total Years with a 60,000 mileage cap from enrollment. $0 Deductible and same comprehensive mechanical coverage. This plan INCLUDES coverage for factory approved aftermarket components. If you are adding an aftermarket tuner, engine components, ect, this plan is for you. All other plans will either void coverage or exclude these components from the contract. Components Wear & Tear Coverage is available.
  3. Eagle Plus: Up to 7-Total Years with a 84,000 mileage cap from enrollment. $0 Deductible and coverage is extended to all the components the factory warranty lists and those listed on this contract. Components Wear & Tear Coverage is available.

Looking forward to assisting riders with their coverage and if there are any questions, please reach out directly. There are usually more details pertaining to the few posts.

Why would you pay for a breakdown before it even happens ESP are just taking a gamble with your money that your bike won't breakdown it just don't make any sense to me.

These plans are not for everyone; however, H-D motorcycles do have problems and now that the factory warranties are prone to being void with aftermarket component installation, this coverage is even more important.

The cost is usually less than your liability insurance policy and will add Roadside Assistance, Trip Interruption, 24/7 Claims Department, $0 Deductible, Components' Wear & Tear Coverage, and the ability to cancel or transfer.

I'm not terribly familiar with these plans, so forgive my ignorance, but my understanding is that they typically kick in when the 2 year warranty ends? Or no?

That being the case, are you saying that if HD denies a claim in the first two years (Or Voids the warranty), because someone installed aftermarket stuff (or for whatever reason they'd do a denial), the plans you sell would potentially cover that?

The Eagle Guardian Plan is designed to cover motorcycles with aftermarket components. That is why the coverage is 5-years / 60,000 miles from the date of the contract purchase. If your bike is 1 year old and has 10,000 miles, this contract's 5 years would start right away. Coverage would continue for 5-years or until the odometer reads 70,000 miles (60,000 additional miles); which ever comes first.

If your bike doesn't have aftermarket components or you don't desire coverage for them, we can use the Compass Platinum plan. This plan's terms are ADDITIONAL Years. When you see 6-Years, that would extend 8-years from the H-D's Factory Warranty Effective date.
